More than 200 applications used in public services in the Republic of Moldova will be made available to Romania for use. The Governments of the two countries signed a memorandum to this effect, IPN reports.
“We were offered an environment for testing these applications of the Republic of Moldova, where these will be subject to all tests, all rigors existing on the public sector of the Romanian market in terms of cybersecurity, given their extension to a much larger market if we compare Romania and the Republic of Moldova and, during the next six months, we will see the first befits, the first informatics solutions that we could transplant to Romania,” said the Romanian Minister of Digitization Sebastian Burduja, who is quoted by Vocea Basarabiei radio station on its website.
In August, Sebastian Burduja said the Republic of Moldova is light years ahead of Romania as regards the digitization of state institutions and it managed to do this through the agency of a World Bank program that was implemented during ten years. He explained that he earlier made a visit to the Republic of Moldova so as to borrow the digitization model. He noted that almost any service in the Republic of Moldova is available online.
